The Jacobite's rebelled against the English Parliament which had recently gained power and had decided the ruling Kings succession lines. Jacobite's thought Kings should be chosen by birthright. This led to a few failed Jacobite uprisings in the early 1700's, which ended up sending a lot of Jacobite's to the early United States. In fact the first prison ships from England came to the United States with quite a few Jacobite's as prisoners. After the US revolution in 1776, the English then sent their prison ships to Australia. Religiously Jacobite's were composed of Catholics, Quakers, Church of England and Church of Scotland.
Toward the end of the 18th Century (1790's), the French Revolution occurred and that is when the Jacobin Club formed and gained its greatest power during the 'Reign of Terror'. Wow strange coincidence. War on Terror. Reign of Terror. Maybe that is our choice.
We have come to a fork in the road.
To the left is the Reign of Terror.
To the right is the War on Terror.
We must choose our paths.
